Yes, there is SunONE I think it is called.  

Oracle now sells a complete groupware server that will merrily run on
Linuxm didn't catch what it was called.

IBM sells Domino for Linux, and if you buy IBM servers you get five free
licenses with each one (at least you used to).

And SuSE just announced OpenExchange -

Two recent reviews (one in InfoWorld I think) were very positive, saying
it performed exactly as expected with no snafu's - role based access
control and everything - and pretty cheap.

Then there is Bynari which seems to be making a go of it at *LARGE*
facilities, like those running groupware on a zSeries mainframe (Holy
Crap!).
